Thanks to the dynamism of cooperatives and enterprises, along with strong support from the city's agricultural sector, high-tech farming models have delivered impressive results, enhancing the value and competitiveness of local agricultural products.
For many years, Tuan Ngoc Agricultural Cooperative in Long Truong Ward, Ho Chi Minh City, has taken the lead in applying digital technology to its hydroponic vegetable production processes. The cooperative not only focuses on technological innovation in management but also integrates circular agriculture principles to promote sustainability.
By reusing resources such as coconut fibre from hydroponic production, Tuan Ngoc Cooperative has improved ecological efficiency and reduced agricultural waste. Through the combination of digital transformation and circular agriculture, Tuan Ngoc has emerged as a model of sustainable agricultural production in Ho Chi Minh City, contributing to both economic development and environmental protection.
According to Lam Ngoc Tuan, Director of Tuan Ngoc Agricultural Cooperative, the cooperative has recently accelerated digital transformation activities to optimise production processes, improve product quality and meet growing market demands. Specifically, the cooperative has integrated Internet of Things (IoT) sensor systems into its hydroponic vegetable farming model. These sensors continuously monitor key parameters such as humidity, temperature, light intensity and nutrient concentration in the water. The collected data is automatically analysed, helping operators make timely adjustments to maintain optimal growing conditions.
